The Relation between Sense of Audience and Specific Learning Disabilities: An Exploration.

Gregg, Noel; McAlexander, Patricia

Annals of Dyslexia, v39 p206-26 1989

Two college-able learning-disabled writers' social and cognitive profiles and the sense of audience in their written texts are examined. The students' deficits (visual and organizational cognitive processing, and oral language comprehension/production) affected their writing, and the quality of their audience awareness was related to the nature of their disability.
